WindowBlinds 4 Install Error
Tuesday, December 2, 2003 by Steven Faulconer | Discussion: Stardock Software
Hello everyone. Every time I attempt to install WindowBlinds 4 on my XP system, I get an error that xpplaces.bm_ has an incorrect size. The log shows:
Download: C:\Program Files\Stardock\SDCentral\temp\Base\Blackcomb\xpplaces.bm_
Error: Full file downloaded
Result: Failed (attempt 1)
Download: C:\Program Files\Stardock\SDCentral\temp\Base\Blackcomb\xpplaces.bm_
Error: Full file downloaded
Result: Failed (attempt 2)
Download: C:\Program Files\Stardock\SDCentral\temp\Base\Blackcomb\xpplaces.bm_
Error: Full file downloaded
Result: Failed (incorrect file size)
Installation aborted (failed)
Anyone have any thoughts/guesses on how to go about resolving this? I just purchased ObjectDesktop and it is somewhat difficult not being able to use it. I've tried other packages, and I get similar errors, though the file giving the error is different (WindowsFX gives the same error on wfx.dl_)
Thanks.
Steven

I haven't tried support yet, was hoping that it was a known issue/problem. I do not have any shareware from Stardock installed (or any that I know of really). I'll try stardock support. Thanks for the response.

If you have any of the shareware programs installed, you should remove them first. Don't know what's causing this really............
